Hello Lovelies,

I have so much to say and I’m not sure where to start, so please bare with me! This is a very important post, so no skipping lol.

First I just want to thank those of you that have been so kind and patient waiting for Lucca. Words cannot express how much your encouraging words means to me. Please know I have given Lucca everything I had, for you.

I tell myself after every book, ‘Sarah you can do this, you can write a book every 3-4 months like other authors’. However this year, I have come to the realization that I just can’t. Unfortunately, I don’t think I am physically nor mentally capable of doing so. My books become a part of me with each word, sentence, paragraph, and chapter I write and when I leave this earth it’ll be what’s left of me. So, I have to make myself proud of what I create and sadly that just takes time for me. I hope you all understand and continue to be patient with me in the future.

I started writing in 2014 and in two years I have written about 4 books. That’s about a 6 month turn around, which I think is pretty good :). Yes, I would definitely love to get them out faster and know that I am going to try and reach a goal of 4 months to finish a book. But, if I can’t reach my goal I hope you all will still love me anyways lol.

Okay let’s move on to my man, Lucca <3.

Writing Lucca has had its up and downs. He’s made me cry, laugh, and everything in between. Lucca has not let me down, he is the exact man I knew him to be from the moment I wrote his name for the first time in Nero. They say you shouldn’t pick favorites, but if I’m honest Lucca has and always will be my favorite character I have ever created. This has been 2 years in the making and I hope I to do him and you all proud.

I wanted soooo bad to get him out before the end of the year, but with editing it just wasn’t possible. I was sad at first but the more I thought about it the more I became happy about it. Who else thought 2016 was well… um shit? If I’m completely honest with you lovelies, 2016 was very hard on me and my family. You can’t almost lose a very important person to you in your life and have it not affect you. It did and that’s why I want 2017 to be better. I’m so glad Lucca won’t be a part of 2016 and I am so happy that he is going to be a part of 2017. I want to make 2017 amazing by releasing Lucca January 31 to start the new year off right!

I will try to pass the time quickly by releasing plenty of teasers till then <3

Oh and after countless hours of searching I have found the perfect Lucca. Holy shit he is gorgeous. I may have cried a bit when I finally found him. I hope you all love the cover just as much as me. I worked so hard on it to tweak him to fit my dreams <3.

Those that follow me on snapchat, I will be showing snippets of the cover till I fully release it on Christmas! Follow me @authorsarahbri to join the fun!

Sorry I have been MIA lately but Lucca has been keeping me busy ;), along with the holidays and spending time with my lovely family.

Happy Holidays Lovelies!

XOXO,
Sarah Brianne
